Tartalomjegyzékben

Tartalomjegyzékben is the locative form of tartalomjegyzék, the Hungarian term for a table of contents. The table of contents is a list at the beginning of a book, document, or manual that shows sections, subsections, and often page numbers. The locative case indicates location, so tartalomjegyzékben means “in the table of contents” or “within the table of contents.” It is used when describing where a particular item is listed or found in a text.

The word is a compound formed from tartalom (content) and jegyzék (list). In Hungarian, compounds like tartalomjegyzék decline according to standard rules, with the locative singular ending -ben, producing tartalomjegyzékben. The plural form would be tartalomjegyzékekben, used when referring to multiple documents or editions that each have their own table of contents.

Usage and style: tartalomjegyzékben is used in formal or academic writing to indicate location within the table of contents. For example: “A fejezetek címei a tartalomjegyzékben találhatók.” or “A melléklet részletei a tartalomjegyzékben szerepelnek.” It is common to pair the phrase with verbs such as találni, szerepelni, or megjelenni.

In summary, tartalomjegyzékben denotes the position of items inside a document’s table of contents and is a standard locative form in Hungarian usage.
